11 Promises To My Roommate
Cheyenne Graden Facebook

I feel like it was just a couple days ago that we were walking into our first day of freshman year of high school. In a few short days, we'll be moving into our college dorm together.

A lot has happened these past four years, but I cannot wait to start these next four years with you! Here are a few things I promise to you:

1. I promise to always be there for you.

Whether it is two in the morning before a big test or eight in the morning when you are struggling to wake up for class, I will be there.


2. I promise to only play my country music when you are not in the room.

I know you hate it, but I will never stop loving it! I will try my best not to expose you to it.


3. I promise to help you make 500 flash cards for all of your nursing tests.

I know sometimes your major will get difficult, but I will always help you study.

4. I promise to never let you skip a class.

College is expensive. We don't pay thousands of dollars a year to fail a class. You can count on me to drag you all the way to your 8 a.m. class.


5. I promise not to get mad at you for wanting to go home a lot.

I know you will miss your family and being home so know that it is okay to do that as much as you need. Just remember I will always be there when you get back.


6. I promise to go to all the football games with you.

Probably the best part of fall!!


7. I promise not to be loud and obnoxious when you are trying to sleep or study.

The truth is I will probably be sleeping 100% of the time, but I will be respectful if I am not sleeping.


8. I promise not to be a slob... all of the time.

I will always try to clean things up, but I am not gonna lie I will get busy and forget to make my bed or take out the trash every once in awhile.


9. I promise to always binge watch Netflix with you.

Does this even need an explanation? Netflix is always the answer.


10. I promise to make our dorm feel like home.

After the countless hour spent on Pinterest and online shopping, our dorm will feel like we never even left home.

11. I promise to always be your friend.

Even if we get mad at each other from time to time, you can always count on me to be there and be your friend. Wesley will be full of unfamiliar faces, but I will never let you feel alone. We have spent so much time talking about college and all of the things we might experience. I know we are ready and I know we can do this together. So I promise you all of these things, but most importantly, I promise everything will be okay. Love you forever!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
